Judging
Judging panels are comprised of qualified individuals from the agency, production, and radio communities.  Our judging criteria ensure that each entry is evaluated on its own individual merits.  Judges will not evaluate any entry in which they or their company were involved. 

Entries that survive the first round of judging are evaluated in a second round, which determines the Finalists, as well as the Winners, in each category.  The Grand Prize Winner is selected from among Finalists in the Agency/Production Company, Political, Radio Station-Produced, and Spanish Language categories. Finalists in the Integrated Radio Campaign, PSA, and Student-Produced categories are not eligible to win the Grand Prize.  

We reserve the right, if necessary, to interpret judging scores and weigh factors relevant to the competition’s purpose of rewarding creative excellence in radio commercials and PSA’s, and/or to reduce the number of Prizes given out in any category or not to award a Prize in any category if the quality of the entries does not meet the competition’s purpose. The decisions of judges during the judging process, and thereafter, the decisions of The Radio Mercury Awards, shall be final.
